Company Registration and Requirements in Denmark

All new companies in Denmark must be registered with the Danish Business Authority, tax authorities, and customs authorities for VAT purposes. Registration commences with the drafting of a Memorandum of Association for the new legal entity and must be completed within two weeks of signing the Memorandum.

Regarding accounting and reporting requirements in Denmark, the Danish Financial Statements Act applies to companies. Legal entities such as A/S must submit annual financial statements, including the annual report, profit and loss account, cash flow statement, balance sheet, and explanatory notes. Branches in Denmark must also submit the foreign company’s annual report to the Business Authority.
